[Sw-l] How to insert pictures into Wikipedia

Daly: The basic syntax is "[[File:Name_of_file|size|caption]]", so, if you
want to add an image titled "Carte Tunisie.jpg", and it should be 150px
wide, and the caption should be "map of Tunisia", you would add
"[[File:Carte Tunisie.jpg|150px|map of Tunisia]]. There's a more detailed
description at this Wikipedia help page
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Extended_image_syntax>. To start
typing regular characters in the SignWriting keyboard, press the toggle
plaintext key ( ` ) at the top-left corner of the keyboard. You can press
the same key again to go back to SignWriting.

I've added the excellent map you uploaded to Tunisia article
<https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/tse/M545x532S33010479x483S31400479x483S1d410515x476S33e00479x483S20e00511x476S2df03526x508>,
currently without a caption.

Great to see so much progress on the Tunisian Sign Wikipedia. Very
exciting. :)
